Ranking the range of electric vans

The market for electric vehicles has grown considerably over the past few years, according to statistics by Nextgreencar.com. They revealed that in 2013 there were 3,500 new car registrations, which jumped up to 85,000 registrations of electric vehicles by the end of 2016.

There are now around 5,000 plug-in vans registered on the roads across the UK too, proving that the electric market is not only strong, but a progressive market as well.

As the market continues to grow, there seems to be more choice available to buyers looking to add an electric van to their fleet. Used van specialist Van Monster has looked at some of vehicles available in the electric van range to discover how their characteristics vary. They have ranked them against characteristics such as battery range, speed and power – you might find that some features sway your decision:
